The Fins definitely have some rooting interest this weekend:

Houston over Cleveland (6-3 Cleveland is more likely to contend for a wild card than 4-5 Houston)

Seattle over Kansas City (KC is competing for a wild card)

New Orleans over Cincy (Cincy competing for a wild card)

St. Louis over Denver (Denver should take the division but you still want NFC over AFC)

Oakland over San Diego (SD is competing and Oakland isn't)

Tennessee over Pittsburgh (see above)

Indy over New England (Indy has the AFC South locked up and if NE loses we are only one game back and still play the Pats again)

The rest shouldn't matter too much.
 
Root for the Texans, Seahawks, Saints, Rams, Raiders, Colts and Titans.
Really need the Seahawks and Colts to win this week.

I would put the Texans, Saints, and Titans in the really need category as well. Also, I actually would almost prefer Denver win. I would much rather face them coming off a win rather than a huge upset to the Rams. I just want them to get beat up a lot. It really has zero impact on us if they win.

I was thinking that also about the Broncos. But my mindset right now is winning the division and being the highest seed possible so I'm all in at this point for the top teams losing, plus I doubt the Rams win anyways but you never know. I'm not real worried about any of the north teams right now, if you look at their schedules it's kind of easy to see how that division will play out, lots of losses coming.
 
I agree about Denver. I don't want to see Peyton coming off of a loss. They will win the west more than likely anyway.
 
Losers to Help Miami on Sunday - 11/16/2014?

There are several games today that will have a direct impact on the Dolphins' playoff hopes.

Seattle vs. KC - 1:00 PM EST
Both Seattle and KC are in the playoff hunt. Both are in 2nd place in their divisions. KC losing would keep them at 5th seed...but just barely...as they have a tie breaker over Miami. This is the game I am watching.

Cincinnati vs. New Orleans - 1:00 PM EST
Should Cincy lose this game, Miami would find itself in the 6th seed position this afternoon.

New England vs. Indianapolis - 8:30 PM EST
I want to New England to lose every game for the obvious reasons. I will be watching this game, too.
 
Would also like to see the Texans beat the Browns, Titans beat the Steelers and the Rams' D-line to beat up Peyton Manning.

Absolutely! Any damage that can be done to the other AFC teams projected to be in the playoffs would be welcome. I'd love to see the Browns, Steelers, Broncos, NE, Cincy, and KC have an end-of-season breakdown!

and It wouldn't surprise me if every single last one won there games! Arggghh
 
I think having some of the other teams back up in the standings would be a huge help. The AFC North should continue to beat themselves up over the rest of the season....and would like to see KC drop a few as well.
 
We need all the afc north teams to lose (Pitt.-Cinn.-clev.)....kc to lose......san diego to lose.....and Indy over n.e.

If all that happens....it will be a great Sunday for Miami.

Well dream on buddy cause all that will not happen. I would say more realistically it will go like this.....Pitt will beat Tenn.- Den. Will steamroll the rams. - hopefully N.O. will revert somehow into the old saints and crush Cincy.- hopefully jj watt goes off and Houston beats Cleve. - now here are the two that can go either way...Sea. Hopefully over K.C. and Indy. Over N.E. but other than those two games its all gonna be what we don't need.
 
I know this might shock some, but I want Denver to win. I don't want Denver coming into our game looking to recover from a loss. I want them ****y as all hell and vulnerable to an underdog like us biting them on the ass.
 
Don't really care if Denver wins or not. I just want one hell of a tough, physical game. Wear those Denver boys down!
